Daniel Amos performs in Albuquerque, New Mexico. at "the Beach" waterpark on a very narrow stage overlooking the wave pool.
The idea was to have swimmers and people on tubes watching the concert on the stage above. However, a small landslide contaminated the pool and DA played facing an empty 1/4 acre of motionless, pea-green water. The audience was forced to watch from the sides. Opening the concert was a local band called 'Holy Smoke' which a visibly frustrated Terry referred to as the 'Smokin' Joes.' (Source: Walter R. Ratliff, Steven Swenson)

Album Info & Lyrics
Terry: "Many people thing this is the best DA album. But then again, when people ask me what my favorite record is, I'll answer 'It's hard to say. They all had their charm at the time, but probably Darn Floor.' And they get an odd look on their faces. I realize they're one of the many who don't think that." (1996)
"When I look back on all my records I think I'm proudest of that record." (Source: Brian Quincy Newcomb in “The HRS-Terry Taylor Interview Part Three”
"It was a liberating thing for us, but it didn’t sell well at all. Here we had finally found a musical voice of our own, and like it or not, no one else could have done that record. The fact that it didn’t connect was a real blow to us and our record company." (Source:Thom Granger in CCM Nov. 1991 “Da-The Band That Won’t Go Away”)
Terry (on the song, "Shape of Air"): "I was inspired with 'Shape of Air'. The phrase actually came from Annie Dillard. It was something she used somewhere, and I was intrigued by it. I thought, that's a great expression of a certain degree of the intangible -- which, again, is the mystery of God. I don't believe that was her intent whith the phrase, but for me it expressed what the whole record was about". (June 1990)
Ed McTaggart did the art direction and design. A video was made of the band, by Dave Perry of Videocon, and then Ed and Dave took photographs off of the TV screen for the album cover.
